Emotional Creature Q #1

Throughout, I am an Emotional Creature, Eve Ensler uses a number of contradictions in her writing.  I think that she creates a rhetorical environment in the readers' head to give them a sense of what the women in the monologues truly experience.  She uses this through female identities to depict scenarios that women from just about every background are faced with every day.  As a male, I think that this truly reveals how different the way women perceive things may be. The questions that women ask themselves every day, no matter what situation they are on, vary greatly from those of males, especially in today's society.  I think that the peer pressures for girls have  been heightened recently because of the feeling of body perception is stereotypically linked to a girls' popularity.  I think that there is also peer pressure between males growing up, but the extent of them is nowhere near the current, "false," expectations that girls think that they are required to fulfill.  I think the more mature women in the monologues learn to deal with these pressures more internally than the younger ones, as they realize that these "expectations," are fabricated by the social hierarchy that young women deal with today.
